I just had my horse's shoulder injected today. First time ever for this one. Vet said shoulders do not hold injections as well as other joints and they may only last 5-8 weeks. Just wondered if anyone else had been through it thanks!

The horse I am running now gets both shoulders injected. He also has a PHT blanket. I think mine last 3-6 months depending on the ground and how much I run. I can tell a huge difference in his pattern after injections.

I had both my mares shoulders done and it has made a world of difference. I did have to have her injected twice pretty close together but shes been good for months now.

I had a gelding with bursitis in his right shoulder. We injected it about twice a year for 2 years, also pulling fluid off as well, and after that he no longer needed it.

I had a gelding that had been sore on his front feet and had made him choppy striding on the front end. Had both shoulders injected and it made a world of difference in his stride.
